BEL AIRE, Kan. (KAKE) — A 21-year-old woman has been charged with multiple felonies after she allegedly shot at a group of girls who had just egged her house in Bel Aire over the weekend.

Sedgwick County court records show Ericya Burns is charged with criminal discharge of a firearm and four counts of aggravated assault. Her first court appearance was held Thursday afternoon.

Officers with the Bel Aire Police Department responded at around 9:30 p.m. Saturday to the report of a possible drive-by shooting in the 5300 block of North Lycee Street. They located and collected several spent shell casings from the area and interviewed two individuals who were initially believed to be victims.

Police said during the initial investigation, the two women told officers that a group of approximately five females, some of whom were under the age of 18, had arrived at the residence and egged the house. They further reported that as the group left the area in a white Jeep, several rounds were fired toward them.

During the subsequent follow-up investigation, Bel Aire Police officers located the white Jeep. Officers observed bullet holes in the vehicle. The occupants of the Jeep had been shot at by a person from the house they egged, police said.

Interviews were conducted, and investigators obtained a search warrant for the home Lycee Street.

Bel Aire police served the search warrant and detained Burns and Semia Arbertha. Following the service of the search warrant and subsequent interviews, two women were arrested and booked into the Sedgwick County Jail.

same here... If I was the cop, after taking her statement, I would have just leaned into her a little and whispered,
thank you for not hitting any of them. ...and close the case...

Not long ago that was someone’s wheat or soybean field.
Sedgwick county is loosing farm land at a rapid rate to solar farms, data centers, and Wichita spread.
During an oil bust a few years back, I pulled grain hoppers out of the fields there.

Absolutely no trees to be seen anywhere.”

Obviously, a very powerful HOA.

“Woman charged with shooting at girls who egged her Bel Aire home”. She probably had a Sig P320 and it just started firing.
